Bantam 3 handles

[Mark Alderson]

I bought a Bass Tracker Bantam 3 boat, and both side handles at the front are missing, how do i replace them, youtube has not been any help on this topic. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

I had one of the bantam 3x boats in the mid late 90's the handles were a clear resin type handles and I think 1 1/2 around. They don't make these boats anymore. you might use a wooden closet rod as a handle. you would need to get one side started in and then keep pushing it in and then pop it into the other side and try to equal them up. hope this helps some.
